cpu model: ryzen 7600 cooler stock included gpu: rx 6700 os: windows 11 power usage: 600 mhp moba: gigabyte b650 i’ve observed my cpu heating up significantly even when idle, reaching up to 60°C and climbing to 95°C during gameplay like Battlefield 2. It seems the BIOS is up to date, but I’m unsure what to do next. I’ve reduced graphics settings in games with minimal effect and pushed fan speeds to their limit without much improvement. The image shows the cpu temperature at idle only.
It seems like you're referring to a stock cooler. Could you clarify what you mean by "sounds pretty normal for a stock cooler"? Are you asking about its typical characteristics or something else?
That's a great stock cooler for you. If you're looking for better temperatures, consider upgrading to a higher-end model. You have options like an AIO with water, a custom loop setup, or an air cooler. I'd suggest an air cooler—it should handle the game well. The Peerless Assassin is a solid choice at around 30-40 euros and performs nicely. You could splurge on more advanced air coolers or Noctua products, but from a cost-performance standpoint, it's still a strong pick.
It seems you're unsure whether you have a 7600 or a 7600X model. A 7600X typically runs hotter than a standard 7600, so you might want a more efficient cooler.
